You can get a newer version of Python (2.4) for the Mac, binary installers too.

I use OS X for all my Django development, and it's been flawless.
There are binary installers for PostgreSQL and MySQL. I haven't had to
build anything from source for my setup (except PIL, but that builds
perfectly with 'python setup.py install')

At my old job, I did Django development with Gentoo, that worked nicely too.
